Hello everyone! Amy Rysavy here as your host for week's Color Throwdown challenge! This living room photo caught my eye and I just loved the look of these colors together! The colours for this week are to use light purple,dark purple,beige/off white, andbrown. Remember we just use generic colors (so any brand/type/whatever you have will work) and you can always feel free to add in neutrals (white/black/etc) to make your creation pop!If you upload your creation to a public gallery, please use the keyword CTD481, and please use #CTD481 and #colorthrowdownon social media so we can find your gorgeous creations! When linking up your creation using the linky tool below, please be sure to link your specific post, not a general link to your blog. All of the "rules" are in the right sidebar, and you can always check there to be sure!

One last detail to remember, no digital designs. Only digital images that are printed off and colored will be allowed. Totally digital designs will be removed from the link up.

Here's some fabulous inspiration from the rest of the CTD team to get y'all started!

Challenge Rules

The Color Throwdown challenges are intended to be fun for everyone. Please use whatever colors you have on hand that are most similar. Combining challenges is fine, but entries must be anew creation, and the colors of your creation should primarily consist of only the Throwdown colors. Neutrals (black, gray, white, Kraft, cream, brown) are free, so use them as you need to complete your design; however, if they are included in the challenge palette they must be used in your creation. We also appreciate a link back to The Color Throwdown site whether you are posting to your blog or another forum. A direct linkto your card via Inlinkz is required. General blog links or cards not following the challenge colors could be deleted. No digital projects--only digital images that are printed off and colored will be allowed. Links must be in place by 6:00 p.m. EST on the Monday immediately following each week's challenge to be considered for Featured Stamper. Thank you for playing!
